A Chang, 1860, a master of Dongpu, Shaoxing, Zhejiang. Lu Xun called her the eldest mother. She was Lu Xun's nanny when he was a child. Lu Xun has deep feelings for his eldest mother.
There are several articles in "Morning Flowers and Evening Picking Up" that recall the past events related to my mother, such as "From Baicaoyuan to Santan Printing the Moon" and "Wuzang Club". Among them, A Chang and Shan Hai Jing is dedicated to remembering and commemorating her.
Extended data:
In this reminiscence essay, Lu Xun focuses on the childhood impression left by his eldest mother with affectionate brushwork, and writes her character vividly. This is obvious to all, and everyone admits it.
However, as a retrospective artistic image, Big Mother is not a typical product. When describing her, Lu Xun neither used the method of "all kinds of people mixed together to synthesize one", nor used his nanny as an "example" to shape a typical working woman.
Chang is the real Chang in life, and all the facts written are "copied from memory"; Although it is "somewhat different from the actual content" (Introduction to Morning Flowers), it is by no means fiction.
